I've been doing some research on traveling to the Philippines and I'm curious about what destinations or experiences would be considered must-visit for a first-time traveler. I'm particularly interested in a mix of nature, culture, and perhaps some off-the-beaten-path spots that might not be as touristy. Any recommendations on islands to visit, local foods to try, or cultural experiences to seek out? I'm also interested in any tips regarding travel logistics, such as moving between islands and the best times of year to visit. Would love to hear about personal experiences or insider tips!
